Arc Of A Diver

Steve Winwood

3/5

Very dynamically boring. Easy listening.

Black Holes and Revelations

Muse

4/5

Some outstanding tracks. Iconic riffs unfortunately drenched in wild self indulgence

More Songs About Buildings And Food

Talking Heads

4/5

Enjoyable, can't say I know much taking heads but it was a fun listen

Manassas

Stephen Stills

3/5

Goo

Sonic Youth

4/5

Eliminator

ZZ Top

5/5

Fantastic album. This is what guitars are meant to sound like.

Aqualung

Jethro Tull

3/5

C'est Chic

CHIC

5/5

A Hard Day's Night

Beatles

4/5

Machine Head

Deep Purple

5/5

Great guitar riffs and Hammond wizardry. Smoke on the water an all time belter.

The Low End Theory

A Tribe Called Quest

3/5

Great sample and lyrical storytelling. Stand out track 'what?'

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs

Derek & The Dominos

4/5

Excellent rhythm and blues album. Some iconic guitar riffs. A tad indulgent on the length of some of the songs that felt samey.

Kimono My House

Sparks

3/5

Not really my vibe. Interesting production value.

Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

1/5

Not my thing

Out Of The Blue

Electric Light Orchestra

4/5

Great album. A lot of wild instruments and cool orchestration

Ramones

4/5

Bit of a mixed bag musically but very enjoyable.

Born In The U.S.A.

Bruce Springsteen

5/5

Great album. One of his best. Glory days a highlight.

The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway

Genesis

3/5

Enjoyable if a little epic in length. Some interesting songs that seem to be lead ups to the next listening in order.

Africa Brasil

Jorge Ben Jor

3/5

Overall a funky and cool vibe. I locked into a percussion instrument that sounds like an asthmatic pigeon that is overly used throughout the record which is possibly the only reason for it's low score.

Kenya

Machito

3/5

Wild ride but a nice mix up in my listening

Disraeli Gears

Cream

4/5

Some great guitar. Mother's lament is a mental way to end the album. Sunshine of your life doing a lot of the heavy lifting.

Transformer

Lou Reed

5/5

Really cool album. Didn't realise I knew so many lou reed songs. I enjoyed the bizarre content and raw style.

Kenza

Khaled

1/5

Doolittle

Pixies

4/5

Good album, fun guitar riffs and second vocal lines. Monkey gone to heaven top choice.

Deja Vu

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

3/5

Definitely Maybe

Oasis

3/5

Very overplayed but not unenoyable

Cosmo's Factory

Creedence Clearwater Revival

4/5

Enjoyable albeit a little samey. Good easy listening with some gems amongst it

1984

Van Halen

4/5

Great riffs and incredible use of synth and guitar. Obvious classics

Metallica

4/5

Interesting cultural influence with some experimental instruments often used throughout, although almost always joined by a familiar chug guitar. Overall a good album from a solid band. Nothing else matters an epic that must be listened to.

The Stranger

Billy Joel

5/5

Bit of a guilty pleasure for me this one. One of his best albums.

Imagine

John Lennon

4/5

Obviously a great song as the title track. The rest of the album is a bit formulaic and twee for me.

Freak Out!

The Mothers Of Invention

4/5

Bonkers but I enjoyed the varying instrumentation. Feels a bit like a band created in a fever dream.
